I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 102 Orc Technology, Shocking

The farce at the manor's main gate did not affect the auction.

Half an hour later, Delton and one of Vogue's personal guards returned to the scene.

The two of them had just returned from visiting Osgers' father, Garmin Vogues.

When Jiaming heard that his son had done something that brought shame upon the family, he was so angry that he ran away on the spot and picked up his sword to chop him down.

Fortunately, Delton and the Governor's guards reacted quickly enough to prevent the tragedy of father and son killing each other from happening.

After returning to the banquet, the Governor's personal guards continued to protect the Governor closely, while Delton activated encrypted communications.

"Kang Wen, report the situation on the scene."

"Sir, the three illegal businessmen left the scene half an hour ago. They were blocked at the gate of the manor by more than a dozen transport vehicles. It seemed like an arrest operation, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful."

"Oh, I know about this. I forgot to tell you before. Guard Unit 7 was ordered by the Governor to capture suspicious targets... Wait, what did you say? The capture was unsuccessful?"

Delton was startled for a moment in the corridor, then returned to normal and continued to play the role of the businessman from Terra.

"Yes, sir. Those three people are psykers. They used a kind of psyker that made them disappear like bubbles. Using this psyker, they slipped away from the encirclement of Guard Squadron 7."

"What a bunch of..." Delton resisted the urge to complain:

"I understand, Kang Wen. Your mission for today ends here. For the next three days, you will just be on standby at the banquet. If there is no clear instruction, you can move freely under a disguised identity, but do not leave the banquet area."

"Yes, sir."

Communication ends.

Delton took out his data pad and sent a message to the Governor, asking if he needed to participate in the hunt for the three illegal businessmen.

Vogues's reply came quickly, and he asked Delton to come to the reception room for an interview.

When he entered the reception room again, the governor's daughter Tido had left. Only Fughes and a fierce-looking man were in the room.

This person has high cheekbones, deep eye sockets, and eyes as sharp as an eagle. Both his appearance and temperament are chilling.

The most exaggerated thing is the degree of his mechanized transformation. Blocks of metal and thick black pipes constitute his "muscles" and "blood vessels", and the whole person looks as majestic as a mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex.

This man's name is Chekav, the leader of the Governor's Guard No. 8.

Before being transferred to Guard Unit 8, Chekav was the head of Guard Unit 9, the Governor-General's Secret Service.

As soon as Delton and Chekav met, the atmosphere between them became subtle.

"Delton, I heard the Governor said that you have performed well since taking over my special agent team."

Chekhov gave up his nose and mouth in favor of a respirator and a fluid feeder.

Correspondingly, his way of speaking also changed from vocal cord sound to electronic synthesized sound from a sound array device.

Delton remained calm despite the hidden meaning in Chekhov's words.

He never looked at the humanoid mechanical creature from beginning to end, as if the electronic muscle bundles and high-horsepower mechanical transmission devices on the other party were just a pile of garbage that could be crushed at any time.

"Governor, I am here. Please give me your orders."

Delton came up to Vogue and bowed.

His deliberate neglect was seen by Chekav as a humiliation.

"Didn't you hear me talking to you..." Chekav's electronic synthesized voice became noisy.

"Okay, Chekav, go down and complete the task I gave you. Let me talk to Delton for a while." Vogue patted the Iron Man's arm and soothed him in a gentle voice.

"Yes, sir." Chekav snorted at Delton, turned around and bowed to Vorges, and left the reception room amid the sound of the hydraulic spine operating.

"Don't mind it, Delton, Chekav has been like this since he was a child." Vorges lit his pipe and sat back in his chair.

Delton asked:
"Sir, do you need me to bring people back those three illegal businessmen?"

Fu Gesi waved his hand and exhaled a puff of smoke:
"Forget it, it's too late. Before you came back, there was news from the airport that a cargo ship had left the port ahead of schedule. Those three bastards are probably on this ship. I have another thing to give you."

Fu Gaisi leaned back in his chair, a cold look on his face:

"Guard Unit 7 has messed up. These guys have been pampered in the Upper Nest for too long. I knew they were bad, but I didn't expect them to be this bad. Delton, from today on, all the members of Guard Unit 7 will become your trainee agents. You must train them like hell. Within six months, I want to see results and kill all the unqualified scum."

"Yes, sir. I will do my best to restore the glory of Guard Unit 7."

Delton prepared to leave.

But Fu Ge Si did not let him go, but told him to sit down.

"Tell me about that boy named Li Nuo."

"Okay, sir, I have all his action records here. Most of them are very detailed, but the records of Li Nuo's actions in the bottom nest are relatively few."

Delton clicked on the data table and retrieved Li Nuo's database information.

Vogue asked:

"Why are there fewer records of Bottom Nest's actions than in other places?"

"Sir, the heresy of the Healing Cult destroyed the sensors. Ever since Master Osgus led the team into the Healing Cult headquarters, the recorders on the agents have been scrapped. The records of Li Nuo's actions in the bottom nest are limited to the time before he entered the Healing Cult headquarters."

Delton thought for a moment and added:
"However, the sensors on Lord Hunter were not damaged by the heresy of the Reconciliation Cult. You may be able to obtain action records related to Li Nuo from them."

"Okay, I understand. First, tell me about the information you have."

"Yes, my lord."

The two exchanged information about Li Nuo in the reception room.

As the core topic of this spy operation, Li Nuo himself knew nothing about it.

He was watching the ugly scene at the auction with great interest, looking at the merchants from all over the empire fighting for the ghost mushrooms.

The ghost mushrooms they bought were, in Li Nuo's opinion, an inferior product, far inferior to the green ghost mushrooms grown with Squig.

In time, when I become bigger and stronger in the orc group, I will open up a trade route between the orcs and the human empire.

Just repackage the ghost potion made from green ghost mushrooms, add some pigments and interference factors to prevent reverse cracking, and then you can sell it to the Human Empire.

By then, throne coins and other things will be abundant.

Uh… isn’t it a bit weird that orcs sell things for throne coins?
Well, let’s not discuss the issue of trade currency for now. Let’s first gain a foothold in the orc group.

Li Nuo opened the system interface and looked at the message record simulated by Waaagh.

【Simulation Character Archive】

[Archive 1: Mad Doctor-Sack]

Archived briefings:

[In the past 7 days, Mad Doctor Sack has worked hard and produced a total of 21 bottles of Sharp Eye Potion and 21 magical spores. ]

[The Sharp Eye Potion has been handed over to the leader of the Steel Coin Clan, Ailon. As a result, a group of Boom Boom Chariot Boys with unerring accuracy have emerged in the clan. The clan's ability to kill with one shot has been significantly improved.]

[21 magical spores are stored in the safe you specified, waiting for you to collect them.]

[According to reliable information, in 5 days, the Steel Coin Clan will launch a full-scale attack on the Red Eyes Clan. Please pay attention to the battle situation to avoid the death of the Mad Doctor.]

Waaagh simulation has the flavor of a farming game, and also has a bit of the pleasure of promoting the development of the orc clan.

Li Nuo was extremely satisfied with this experience, as if he was playing a simulation business game with the theme of green orcs.

The banquet will end after 3 days, and after another 2 days, the Orc Clan War will begin.

He must "go online" on time and personally control the Mad Doctor Gaga to kill people indiscriminately, helping the Steel Coin Clan to take over the territory of the Red Eyes Clan in one fell swoop.

Li Nuo opened the second save file in his imagination.

[Archive 2: Technician Boy-Gujia]

【Archive Status:】

[For the past 7 days, Gujia has been repairing the pirate ship. At this time today, the ship has just been repaired. ]

[The orc pirate leader Big Black Fang is not satisfied with the results of the last robbery and is looking for the next target to rob. ]

Guga, the technician boy, mechanical wizardry.

Li Nuo stared at the save interface and thought to himself.

Use mechanical witchcraft on the water purification plant in the lower nest to create a production line that automatically cultivates water puck bacteria and purifies water bodies, thereby increasing the water purification capacity of the water purification plant.

This matter is related to the expansion of the manor and must be done as soon as possible.

Li Nuo looked around, stood up and walked towards the lounge.

Since the boss allows me to slack off, I'll do it to my heart's content.

Take advantage of these three days of doing nothing at the banquet to unlock more mechanical wizardry.

Go to the single lounge, lock the door and draw the curtains.

Li Nuo lay down on the sofa, found a comfortable position, took out a magical spore and put it in his mouth, then clicked on the save file of the technician boy - Gu Jia.

The consciousness leaves the body and travels through the sea of stars.

Soon, three wasteland-style orc ships appeared in front of them.

Li Nuo's consciousness entered the first ship and drilled into Gu Jia's body.

[The character archive has been successfully loaded. You have been possessed by the technical boy Gu Jia. ]

I opened my eyes and heard the sound of a power hammer hitting the iron ingot. The strong smell of engine oil penetrated my nose and stinky farts passed by my feet.

Several specimens made from the skulls of Eldar pirates were hung from the rafters, serving as decorations for this orc workshop.

Li Nuo looked at Gu Jia's recent memories.

Guga's boss, the Orc Jiba, is building a new macro cannon on another ship.

In this workshop, we are the ones with the highest status at the moment.

Li Nuo raised his foot and kicked the fart spirit on his butt:

"Get me a tank of water."

The fart spirit rubbed the place where he was kicked, and was not angry. Instead, he smiled flatteringly with a mouthful of yellow teeth:
"Okay, okay. I'll go right away."

The technician's instinct told Li Nuo that this fart spirit had evil intentions.

Li Nuo kicked him again: "What I want is clean water. Don't let me see your snot and poop in the water, or I'll make you pay."

When the fart spirit's inner thoughts were discovered, his expression suddenly fell, like a child who failed to complete a prank.

Li Nuo didn't buy it. He kicked him away and turned to walk towards his workshop.

As he passed by tool benches and storage racks, he picked up any pipes, sinks, funnels, and other items that might be of use.

A moment later, four fart spirits entered the workshop carrying water tanks like black people carrying coffins.

The water in the water tank was covered with a thick layer of oil and gave off a complex smell, which was dirtier than the dirty water from mopping the floor.

In the eyes of humans, even the people in the nest dare not use this kind of water.

But on the ships of the orc pirates, this kind of water is already the clearest and cleanest, and only orcs of higher status can enjoy it.

Most of the orc boys and farts can only quench their thirst with their own liquid excrement and the coolant of the ship's engine.

"Get out, get out." Li Nuo kicked the fart spirit out with his four legs and closed the iron door of the workshop.

There was a strange cry from outside the door.

"That's a really powerful kick!"

"I've never been kicked so hard before!"

Ah, is the fart spirit's train of thought so weird?

Are they all masochists?

The harder you kick their butts, the more enjoyable they feel.

Li Nuo didn't understand, but expressed respect.

Let’s stop talking and start thinking.

Li Nuo took out the water puck bacteria and placed it in front of him along with sewage, water pipes and other things, and mobilized my thinking power.

The system message arrived as expected.

[Searching the genetic knowledge base of the technician boy, looking for mechanical wizardry that can solve the problem. 】

【...】

【Search completed.】

【Search results: 1 item. 】

The details are as follows:

【Name: Blueprint for making a water puck bioreactor. 】

【Learning cost: 5 skill points. 】

【illustrate:】

[Use universal spiritual energy materials and necessary physical raw materials to build a bioreactor that meets the growth and development needs of water poccoccus. ]

[The reaction unit of this reactor is the hyphae of water poccoccus, the reaction catalyst is sewage without radiation, and the filtration unit is ordinary filtration materials, such as quartz sand, activated carbon, filter cloth, etc. ]

[The water produced by the reactor is equivalent to the irrigation water of the estate. ]

[Remaining simulation points: 1180 points. ]

The learning cost is 5 skill points, which is within my tolerance.

Li Nuo spent 50 points to exchange for 5 skill points and exchanged for the production blueprint of the bioreactor.

As the profound knowledge of witchcraft emerged in his mind, Li Nuo's hands began to move.

The thick orc's fingers became as flexible as snakes at this moment, and every step showed just the right strength and angle.

The hyphae of water pococcus were cut off with a knife and arranged neatly on the metal strip.

Don't underestimate the water purification ability of these mycelium.

They look soft, thin and small, but they actually have an amazing specific surface area.

Their structure is like a dense net.

Take one of them individually and unfold it along its structural texture, which is enough to form a 10x10x10 cm biological filter.

This mesh structure is only the first layer of filtration effect of water poccoccus.

During its growth and development, it secretes enzymes that degrade organic pollutants and substances with flocculating properties.

The bioreactor maximizes the use of the mycelial structure, enzymes and flocculants of Hydrococcus.

When in operation, the efficiency of this reactor exceeded Li Nuo's imagination.

The water purification plant he built himself requires that the sewage be allowed to settle and remove larger particles before hydrococcus can be used to purify the water.

But bioreactors are not so troublesome.

As long as the sewage does not contain radiation, it can be directly poured into the reactor.

After the bioreactor is powered on, the hyphae of the water pococcus will "work" at high intensity under the effect of "electrotherapy".

The bioreactor will continuously discharge irrigation water and some solid pollutants that are difficult to be degraded by water pococci.

After some calculations, Li Nuo determined that the bioreactor's operating efficiency was twice that of the water treatment plant's current efficiency.

After replacing the existing water purification facilities with bioreactors, the amount of purified water will soar to 60,000 cubic meters per day, which is 10,000 more than the estate's daily water consumption.

Orc technology is shocking!
Science and technology changes destiny, and technology creates value!
For the first time, Li Nuo intuitively felt the profound meaning of these words.

"I think what I lack most now is the ability to protect myself. The strong enemies I met all had psychic shields. I want to have one too!"

Li Nuo pushed the finished bioreactor aside, took a large number of parts from outside again, and started new thinking.

[Searching the genetic knowledge base of the technician boy, looking for mechanical sorcery that can enhance self-protection capabilities. ]

【...】

【Search completed.】

【Search results: 55 item. 】

[After removing the mechanical sorcery that cannot be effective due to insufficient universal material limit, there is still 1 item left in the search results]

The details are as follows:

【Name: Micro Waste Shield Generator.】

【Learning cost: 50 skill points. 】

【illustrate:】

[Use universal psychic materials and necessary physical raw materials to create a shield generator that uses waste as energy. ]

[The generator uses a safe cold nuclear fusion reaction to convert waste into energy.]

[Energy will be projected onto a narrow arc surface, forming an energy barrier to resist attacks from a specific direction. ]

[This device can automatically respond to attacks and adjust the defense angle in real time. ]

[When facing energy attacks, the shield will counteract them. 】

[When facing physical attacks, the shield will deflect them. ]

[Please note that this shield cannot protect against psychic attacks or attacks from the subspace.]

50 skill points?

drizzle.

Change!
study!
搓！
Finished!

The shield generator looks similar to the reactor on Iron Man's chest and can be embedded in a belt and carried around.

The appearance of this thing is unique, with a rather wasteland feel. The metal shell on the surface is bumpy, the screws are uneven, the gears are a bit loose, and it makes a clattering sound when shaken.

If new materials are found in the future, the appearance of the shield generator will probably become completely different.

Of course, appearance has never been the focus of orc technology.

The real point is that this thing that looks like it will fall apart at any time actually integrates a cold nuclear fusion reactor and a shield projector.

Simply unbelievable.

Li Nuo grabbed a handful of rusty nails, stuffed them into the feed port of the generator, pressed the switch, and manually activated the shield.

The shield generator shook and emitted a thin wisp of black smoke.

"Om-"

The sound of electrophoresis was thrilling, and a layer of energy barrier appeared in front of Li Nuo, with an area of about three square meters, which could block attacks from the front at a 60-degree angle.

Another nail was inserted into the generator, and the energy barrier expanded to both sides, covering an area of six square meters, capable of defending against attacks at an angle of 120 degrees.

After stuffing several iron nails in continuously, the barrier successfully formed an encirclement, protecting Li Nuo inside.

Data from the appraisal technique showed that the spherical barrier could last up to 1 minute when not attacked.

If you are shot at by a bolter, the shield duration will drop from 1 minute to about 10 seconds.

The stronger the attack, the shorter the shield duration. Fortunately, you can extend the time by constantly recharging scrap.

The so-called waste refers to all raw materials with physical form.

The coolest, wowiest, most suitable scrap for the scrap shield generator in Techboy's workshop is a radiation concentrate.

Something the size of a fingernail is enough to keep the shield generator working for an hour.

However, I think it's better to forget it. Ordinary waste is much safer than radioactive concentrate.

Li Nuo held the shield generator in his arms and couldn't let it go.

From now on, he is also a person with "psychic shield".

Calculating the time, the banquet is almost over.

Li Nuo did not dare to delay and "went offline" on the spot.
